Take note that although games for the psp play in any psp, regardless of the place you've bought it, movies have region code protection! That means that if you own a US PSP only region 1 movies will play in it. So, if you're planning on purchasing movies for the PSP and you live in Europe it's best you buy the european version.
I just saw that there's a gameboy and a nes emulator out for the system already! :smile:

Yes indeed, movies are region locked. It's been said that Japan and Europe will use the same region code though, but only time will tell.

That's nice, I'm sure you'll enjoy it. RR is a superb launchtitle, 1 of the best in the series. I think it has been a while since importing a console/handheld was this popular. But it seems you can keep on waiting forever if you want to buy it on the european launch date. I've ordered some new goodies for my psp : logitech playgear pocket (protectice case), a pouch that holds 6 UMD disks and Wipeout on the cheap @26$, but I see it has been sold out already today : www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-9f-70-4lz.htmlI also got Mercury. Pretty nice game, but I have a feeling it didn't quiet reach full potential.

UMD game ISO launcher will be released soon. So, all your home-made ISOs (ahem) will be playable from the memory stick now.. :smile: I wonder if that'll work with movies too although a 2GB memory stick costs a LOT right now.

Mike Tsk Tsk, Sony talk on a Nintendo game and watch forum You might want to check whether you need a step up or step down convertor so you dont fry the thing when you plug it in if you plan to use the original US charger that comes with it, but i dont know about European voltages (apart from UK that is)

The only thing you need to purchase is a simple cable to replace the one connecting PSP's transformer with the US plug. It's available in any electronics shop and it costs around 2-3 euros. I've got a US PSP version too. I don't see why you would want to change the firmware unless you're planning to purchase UMD movies. Games etc. have no region code. Sony will probably stop producing UMD movies soon since their sales are dismal.

What game are you playing guys? Mike I'm currently playing Lemmings and Outrun 2006 : Coast 2 Coast. I've heard that Daxter is excellent, and bought it yesterday, but I've yet to play it. I know it is a long way off but I can't wait for Gran Turismo 4 to be released.
